Sergey Kharitonov at the M-1 Challenge 80 tournament, which took place on June 15, 2017 in the Chinese city of Harbin, fought in the main fight of the evening against the veteran of Pride FC, American fighter Ramo Thierry Sokoudjou, nicknamed “The African Assassin”!

In 2007, the “African Terror” burst onto the world arena of mixed martial arts – an unknown young fighter Ramo Thierry Sokoudjou, thrown to the slaughter of recognized Pride superstars, unexpectedly knocked out Antonio Rogerio Nogueira and Ricardo Arona. And if the Japanese organization had not ceased its activities, it is unknown how the fate of the talented guy would have developed. After the closure of Pride, he managed to perform at all the world’s leading venues – Dream, UFC, Bellator, KSW. His record speaks volumes that his performances were almost always different, but Sokoudjou was always aiming for a tough chop in the stand-up, to knock out or be knocked out. It was time for him to perform at M-1 Global, because except for the reckless American, no one else in the world dared to go out against Sergei Kharitonov, having only two weeks to prepare.

This was a fight in which both opponents were aiming to knock out their opponent as quickly as possible. And that is why the fight turned out to be very spectacular and bright. And its result was a quick and brutal knockout.
